F\u00f6r n\u00e4stan ett \u00e5r sedan \u00e5kte Linda till Loki i Rift Valley i Kenya f\u00f6r att s\u00e4tta ig\u00e5ng en s\u00f6mnadskurs f\u00f6r en grupp kvinnor och m\u00e4n. Tanken var att om de l\u00e4r sig att sy enkla kl\u00e4der till barn och vuxna i samh\u00e4llet kan de f\u00f6rs\u00f6rja sina familjer.
\nDet har fungerat, vad jag f\u00f6rst\u00e5r — och extra roligt blev det n\u00e4r Birgitta kom p\u00e5 att vi i Sverige kunde f\u00e5 k\u00f6pa kl\u00e4nningar som\u00a0sedan kunde delas ut bland flickor p\u00e5 plats. Sponsring kan man\u00a0kalla det, kanske. Och\u00a0det blev bra i tre led: fina kl\u00e4nningar till flickorna, inkomst till dem som syr, och en liten peng per kl\u00e4nning till sj\u00e4lva skr\u00e4dderiet s\u00e5 att det g\u00e5r att h\u00e5lla det ig\u00e5ng och k\u00f6pa in nya tyger och lite annat.<\/p>\n
Nu b\u00f6rjar n\u00e4sta kurs: Linda samlade in pengar n\u00e4r hon fyllde \u00e5r, och en\u00a0som fyllde 50 gjorde detsamma, s\u00e5 det finns resurser att anst\u00e4lla Lokis professionelle skr\u00e4ddare som l\u00e4rare i drygt tre m\u00e5nader. Jennifer (p\u00e5 bilden) och hennes kolleger dr\u00f6mmer om att klara att sy skoluniformer. Det skulle n\u00e4mligen ge dem en trygg inkomst — barn som g\u00e5r i skolan i Kenya g\u00f6r det ofta i uniform, kanske vit skjorta och mj\u00f6rkbl\u00e5 kjol eller shorts.<\/p>\n
Till att b\u00f6rja med kompletteras syrepertoaren (hittills mest omlottkl\u00e4nningar, axelremskassar och mjuka djur) med shorts. Det har ju varit lite or\u00e4ttvist att s\u00e5 m\u00e5nga flickor har f\u00e5tt fina kl\u00e4nningar och att inte pojkarna har f\u00e5tt n\u00e5got alls. Birgitta h\u00e4lsar att det snart ska g\u00e5 att sponsra shorts ocks\u00e5. Vi \u00e5terkommer om detta s\u00e5 snart det finns bilder och lite mer att ber\u00e4tta!
\nP\u00e5 bilden h\u00e4r \u00e4r det Peter och Peter som syr. De ser fram emot nya uppdrag tror jag best\u00e4mt!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
